Curriculum

Our school follows the National Curriculum Statements (NCS) for Grades R – 7 (CAPS).

The Grade RR – 7 learners follow a quality based curriculum which aims to:

  • provide opportunities for all learners to learn and to achieve;
  • promote learners’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development and to prepare them for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of life.

This curriculum places a high value on:

  • teaching children to communicate and work effectively with others,
  • the ability of the learners to express themselves verbally and in writing,
  • to use information technology with ease in practical situations,
  • to solve problems by thinking logically using the facts at hand.

All Grade 4 – 7 learners take the following subjects:

  • English, First Language
  • Afrikaans, Second Language
  • Mathematics
  • Information and Communications Technology (ICT)
  • General Science
  • History
  • Geography
  • Art
  • Life Orientation

In addition to stimulating the academic growth of these learners, they also participate in a variety of social events like Speech and Reading competitions. The English and Afrikaans classes contain class libraries where learners can borrow English and Afrikaans books to read at their leisure.
